Base Logistics is part of Base Logistics Group, a global asset-light provider of integrated transport and warehouse management services, founded in the Netherlands. We are specialized in time- and mission-critical services for the high-tech and medical industries.
As part of our strategy to become an internationally leading logistics organization, HealthLink Europe was added to Base Logistics Group in 2017. Operating out of ‘s-Hertogenbosch (Netherlands), Waalwijk (Netherlands), Raleigh (USA) and Memphis (USA), HealthLink is a logistics outsourcing partner for life science manufacturing companies.
In 2019, Special Logistic Services (SLS) also became part of Base Logistics Group. With offices in Breda and Amsterdam (the Netherlands) and Schelle (Belgium), SLS is a Field Service Logistics specialist mainly focusing on service organizations within the Benelux.
In the first half of 2021, Base Logistics Group was acquired by the French industry peer Staci Group. Base Logistics Group will continue to operate independently, but thanks to the acquisition it has a strong international network.
Base Logistics was established in 1994 in Dordrecht (Netherlands).
We subsequently set up an office in Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, before moving into a new building in Zwijndrecht in 2004. In 2007 we set up an ancillary office in Landsmeer. Because this location quickly became too small and so that we could offer more storage space, in 2009 we moved from Landsmeer to a Distribution Centre in Amsterdam, with an office for 10 employees.
In order to make room for the growth that Base Logistics was experiencing, we extended the head office in Zwijndrecht in 2007 into 6,000 m2.
Apart from extra storage surface, this created additional office space for our 85 employees. As our growth continued the need for a more larger accommodation also grew. Therefore, the Amsterdam DC and the Zwijndrecht head office were relocated to Moerdijk at the start of 2017. Shortly after that, the Amsterdam office was moved to Oostzaan.
Including our subsidiaries HealthLink Europe and Special Logistic Services we currently employ more than 600 people.
Since the takeover by Staci Group, Base Logistics Group has a network of 79 warehouses in Europe and the United States, with a total surface area of 910,000 m2. The total number of employees is approximately 3,500 employees.
Already at an early stage, automation and innovation took an important place in our company. In keeping with this, we took the decision in 2003 to develop the logistics platform Klairy entirely under our own steam.
It is a smart and unique logistics application that still forms the basis of our service provision today.
